What is Digital Fine Art Photography?
(my answer to this burning question)

Our world is a planet of opposites seeking harmonic balance (light–dark, sweet-sour, happy-sad). The goal is not to replace black and white with gray, or, hot and cold with lukewarm; but for all to exist in harmony. Digital Fine Art Photography (like the DragonFlies of my mind) strikes this harmonies balance.

We can view this world thru the
reality of our eyes or thru the
fantasy of our imagination.

We can reproduce what we see thru
photographs which are authentic reproductions or
paintings which are conceptual reproductions.

Everything on earth is carbon or silicon based.
Plants and animals are carbon based; while
cameras and computers are silicon based.

So what happens when we mix it up a bit?
carbon based humans and plants mixed with
silicon based cameras and computers;
fantasy mixed with reality;
Authentic reproductions mixed with
conceptual reproductions?

We would have a silicon based object of reality that is an authentic, conceptual reproduction of a carbon based entity as viewed thru the eyes of imagination. Or, simply put:
